Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum value is when cos x = 1

So it is -2 + 4(1) = 2.

Minimum value, when  cos x = -1:

= -2  + 4(-1) = -6.

Answer:

The maximum 2 is reached when x=2pi,4pi, and 6pi.

The minimum -6 is reached when x=pi, 3pi,and 5pi.

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's first look at cos(x) on interval (0,21].

How many rotations is that? Does it at least contain 1 full rotation? If it contains one full rotation that means all the values from -1 to 1 (inclusive) are tagged? If it doesn't contain a full rotation, we might have to dig a little deeper.

So we know x=0 isn't included and that's when cosine is first 1,but this doesn't mean 1 won't be hit later.

Let's figure out the number of rotations:

21/(2pi)=3.3 approximately

This means we make at least 3 rotations.

So this means we definitely will have all the values from -1 to 1 tagged (inclusive).

Now let's look at whole function.

f(x) = -2 + 4 cos x

-2+(-4) to -2+4 will be the range of the function

So the minimum is -6 and the maximum is 2.

So the min occurs when cos(x)=-1 and the max occurs when cos(x)=1.

We have a little over three rotations and remember we can't include x=0.

cos(x)=1

when x=2pi (one full rotation)

when x=4pi (two full rotations)

when x=6pi (three full rotations)

We will stop here because cosine won't be 1 again until a fourth full rotation

cos(x)=-1

when x=pi (half rotation)

When x=3pi (one + half rotation)

When x=5pi (two+half rotation)

We can't include x=7pi (three+half rotation)

because this one is actually not in the interval because 3.5 is more than 3.3 .

The maximum 2 is reached when x=2pi,4pi, and 6pi.

The minimum -6 is reached when x=pi, 3pi,and 5pi.

What is the value of x when y equals 66?<br><br> y=0.985897x+0.194185
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

x = 66.74715005725

Step-by-step explanation:

First you bring over the added variable. 0.194185, and subtract it from 66. Then you divide your difference by 0.985897. This gives you 66.74715005725

The centre of a triangle must always be found inside the triangle. Illustrate the statement with examples or deny the statement
Alla [95]

The center of a triangle must always be found inside the triangle given that it is concurrent point of the three median lines of the triangle all three of which are located only inside of the triangle

The examples of the properties of the center of a triangle are;

  1. The center of the triangle is the centroid of the triangle which is the point of concurrency of the three medians of the triangle, where a median line is the line which connects a vertex to the midpoint of the side opposite the vertex inside the triangle
  2. Each median line divides the area of the triangle in half, and given that the area of the triangle is equal to half the altitude, multiplied by the length of the base side of the triangle, the three medians of a triangle are related and share a common concurrent point <em>inside</em> the triangle such the perpendicular distance from the concurrent point of the three medians to each of the three side is less than the altitude of the triangle

Given that the three medians are located inside the triangle therefore, based on the location of the center of the triangle on the medians of the triangle, the center of the triangle must always be found inside the triangle
